Disc care and handling
• To keep the disc clean from scratches or fingerprints, handle the disc by its edge. Do not touch the recorded surface.
• Blu-ray Discs record data in very high density and the recorded layer is very close to the disc surface. For this reason, Blu-ray Discs are more sensitive to dust and fingerprints than DVD. Should you encounter playback problems and see dirty spots on the disc surface, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the center out along the radial direction. Do not wipe the disc in a circular motion.
•
• Do not attach labels or stickers to discs as this may cause the disc to warp, become imbalanced or too thick, resulting in playback problems.
• Avoid exposing the discs to direct sunlight or heat sources.
• Do not use the following discs:
o Discs with exposed adhesive from removed stickers or labels. The disc may get stuck inside the player. o Warped or cracked discs.
o Irregularly shaped discs, such as heart or business card shapes.
Notes about BD-ROM compatibility
Since the Blu-ray Disc specifications are new and evolving, some discs may not play properly depending on the disc type, version and encoding. It is possible that a Blu-ray disc manufactured after the player was manufactured uses certain new features of the Blu-ray Disc specifications. To ensure the best possible viewing experience, the player may need a firmware or software update from time to time. Please visit OPPO BD UK Ltd web site www.oppo-bluray.co.uk to check if updates are available.

BLU-RAY DISC PLAYER BDP-93EU
Changing the Remote Code
The remote control supports one of three remote codes. The default is “Code 1”. If you have other OPPO products placed close to the BDP-93EU, they may inadvertently respond to the BDP-93EU remote control. In this case you can select a different remote code to avoid conflicts.
To select a new remote code, open the battery compartment cover of the remote control, and then use a ball point pen to flip the switch to one of the positions marked as “1”, “2”, or “3”. Close the battery compartment cover. Make sure that the BDP-93EU player is turned on and the disc tray is ejected. Aim the remote
control at the player. Press and hold the ENTER button for 5 seconds. The player will start using the new remote code.

• If the remote control will not be used for a long time, please remove the batteries.
• Use the batteries correctly to avoid possible leakage and corrosion. Do not leave the batteries exposed to direct sunlight or high temperature environment for a long period of time. Do not heat or expose to flame. Do not mix old and new batteries. Do not use batteries of different types at the same time. Do not attempt to recharge the batteries.
• In case battery leakage occurs, do not touch the liquid with bare hands. Wipe out any liquid inside the battery compartment, and insert new batteries.
Connecting to a Display (Recommended Methods)
HDMI Connection to a single TV
HDMI Cable (to HDMI 1 or 2) Composite Video Cable
(optional)
HDMI In Video In
Rear Panel
Method 1 – HDMI Connection Directly to a single TV
• If your TV has an HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) input, you can use the included HDMI cable to connect the player to the TV. This connection method delivers both video and audio in a pure digital format via a single cable. The HDMI video output of the player allows for the highest possible video quality and resolution.
• There are two HDMI output terminals (HDMI 1 and HDMI 2) on the rear panel of BDP-93EU, both of which can be connected to your TV. We recommend to use HDMI 1 since it benefits from the dedicated Marvell QDEO video processor, and set the “Primary Output” option in the
setup menu to “HDMI 1” (please refer to page 52 for more details).
• You may connect the composite video cable to the TV for troubleshooting purposes, in the event that there is a problem with HDMI video. However it is not recommended to use the
composite video as the primary method of video delivery to the TV, because it only produces a standard definition video signal and forfeits the advantage of high definition video.
HDMI Connection to Two (2) TVs
Composite Video Cable (optional) Rear Panel HDMI In Video In HDMI In Video In HDMI Cables TV 1 TV 2
Method 2 –HDMI Connection Directly to two TVs
• The two HDMI outputs (HDMI 1 and HDMI 2) available on the rear panel of BDP-93EU can connect to two TVs at the same time, and each output can deliver the digital video and audio signals.
• We recommend to connect your main TV (the one with larger screen size or the one that you would watch more often) to HDMI 1 thus to benefit from the dedicated video processor, and set the “Primary Output” option in the setup menu to “HDMI 2” to make sure that the HDMI 2 can
output high bit rate audio signals (please see more details on page 52).
• You may connect the composite video cable to one of your TVs for trouble-shooting purpose, please refer to page 10 for more details.
DVI Connection
HDMI(from HDMI 1 or 2) - DVI Cable Composite Video Cable
(optional) Video In Rear Panel DVI Audio Audio Cable DVI
Method 3 – DVI Connection to TV
• If your TV has a DVI input that supports HDCP*, you can purchase an HDMI-DVI adapter cable to connect the player to the TV. This connection method delivers digital video to the TV without any signal degradation. The HDMI video output of the OPPO Blu-ray Disc player presents the highest possible video quality and resolution. We recommend to use HDMI 1 since it can benefit from the dedicated video processor, and set the “Primary Output” option in the setup menu to “HDMI 1” (please see more details on page 52).
• Please use the Red/White audio cables to connect the FL (Front Left) and FR (Front Right) terminals of the player to the TV. Make sure the audio cables are connected to the same input terminal group on the TV as the DVI input. Usually the input terminals are marked as “DVI Audio” or “PC Audio”. On some TVs you may need to use an RCA-3.5mm Mini-Jack adapter cable to connect the audio.
• You may connect the composite video cable to the TV for trouble-shooting purpose, please refer to page 10 for more details.
NOTE
HDCP stands for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. The HDMI output of the OPPO Blu-ray Disc player uses HDCP to encrypt the digital audio and video content. The TV needs to support HDCP so it can decrypt the content and properly display it.
Component Video Connection
Component Video Cables Rear Panel Y Pb/Cb Pr/CrAudio Audio Cable
Component Video
Method 4– Component Video Connection to TV
• If your TV has no digital video input but has component video inputs, please use a set of component video cables to connect the component video output of the player to the TV, and remember to set the “Primary Output” option in the setup menu to “Analog” (please see more details on page 52). The connectors are color coded, so please make sure the cable
connections match on both ends. The component video connection will produce a very clear picture with high color accuracy.
• Please use the Red/White audio cables to connect the FL (Front Left) and FR (Front Right) terminals on the rear panel of the player to the TV. Make sure the audio cables are connected to the same input terminal group on the TV as the chosen component video input.
• When the “Primary Output” option in the “Video Setup” section of the Setup menu is set to
“HDMI 1” or “HDMI 2” (see page 52 for details), the component video connection will not output
video when playing a Blu-ray Disc with 1080p 24Hz content, or will only output video with a low resolution (480i/576i) when playing a DVD. This is not a malfunction. You must set “Primary Output” to “Analog” in order to properly use the component video connection.
• When playing a Blu-ray Disc, video resolution over the component output can be up to 1080i. 1080p content will be interlaced into 1080i signal for the component output.
• Video up-conversion over the component output is only available for unencrypted discs such as home video and consumer-created contents. Most commercially pressed DVD discs are CSS-encrypted and will be limited to 480i/480p resolution. This restriction applies to the component output only. The HDMI output is protected with HDCP and has no such restriction.

Method 5 – HDMI Connection to Receiver and TV
• If you have an HDMI-capable receiver that can support HDMI audio, you can simply run an HDMI cable from the player to your receiver and enable HDMI audio on the receiver (see your receiver’s owners’ manual for more information). The receiver usually has an HDMI output that you can connect to your TV to pass the video signal.
• Either of the HDMI output terminals (HDMI 1 and/or HDMI 2) on the rear panel of the BDP-93EU can be connected to your receiver. Preference should be given to HDMI 1 for video since it’s the only output on the machine to benefit from the superior Marvell QDEO video processing solution, and set the “Primary Output” option in the setup menu to “HDMI 1” (please refer to
page 52).
NOTE
HDMI is a single cable that can transport both audio AND video from your player to your display. Be aware, however, that HDMI is an evolving standard, and there could be compatibility issues. A receiver that supports audio input over HDMI is required. Some receivers offer HDMI ports solely for video switching. If your receiver does not have audio input capability, please read the following sections regarding other connection methods. In order to play multi-channel audio for all formats, the receiver must support HDMI v1.1 or later. For Blu-ray Disc, a receiver that supports HDMI v1.3 with decoding capability for Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio is preferred. Please check the specifications of your receiver to ensure that it meets the requirements.
The HDMI outputs on the BDP-93EU are HDMI v1.4, which is compatible with HDMI v1.3 and earlier versions.

Method 8 – Stereo Analog Audio Connection
• If your audio system offers only stereo audio inputs, or if you would like to connect a dedicated stereo audio system in addition to the surround audio system which is already connected to the HDMI, coaxial or optical output, you can connect the dedicated stereo audio system to the FL (Front Left) and FR (Front Right) terminals of the player.
NOTE
• Depending on the capability of your audio system, you may set up your Blu-ray Disc player with one of the following configurations: if the audio system does not have surround speakers, please set the down mix mode to “Stereo”; if the audio system has
surround speakers and Dolby Pro Logic or similar surround audio decoding capability, please set the down mix mode to “LT/RT”. (Please refer to page 67 for details.)
Connecting to a Display and Audio System using Dual HDMI
Method 9 – Dual HDMI Connection
• BDP-93EU provides a Dual HDMI connection to make sure you can enjoy the highest possible video quality and resolution, in addition to the high bit rate audio content. You can use the included HDMI cables to connect the HDMI 1 output to your HDTV and connect the HDMI 2 output to your receiver, also set the “Primary Output” option in the Video Setup section of the
Setup menu to “HDMI 1” (see page 52 for details). In this way you can utilize the dedicated video processor available for HDMI 1 output, and allow your receiver which has no HDMI 1.4 inputs to work without any loss on the digital audio signals.
• Keep in mind that while Dual HDMI connection is only a recommended method, in fact, both of the HDMI outputs (HDMI 1 and 2) on the BDP-93EU can send out digital audio and video signals at the same time, and can be connected to your TV or receiver/amplifier separately (see page 10 and 14 for details).
NOTE
• Please refer to the notes of HDMI connection available on page 14.
• If your receiver does not have audio input capability, please try alternate connection methods discussed on pages 15 to 17.
Connecting to the Internet
The OPPO BDP-93EU Blu-Ray Disc Player has significantly improved its internet exploration capabilities compared to its predecessors. as well as in-home network media sharing via My Network which is
functionally equivalent to DLNA. Additional network applications may be added with future firmware updates. The BDP-93EU also supports the BD-Live feature offered on some Blu-ray Disc titles. BD-Live offers extra downloadable content and additional online interactive programs. Content available on BD-Live vary by discs and studios, and may include additional subtitles, commentaries, movie trailers, games, or online chat. Connecting the player to the Internet will also allow the player to obtain firmware updates via the Internet. (See pages 4 and 72 for more information regarding firmware updates.)
In order to utilize the BD-Live feature or update firmware via the Internet, the player needs to be connected to a broadband Internet connection. It is not necessary to connect to the Internet if you do not intend to use the network streaming, BD-Live and online firmware updating functionality.
The BDP-93EU provides two network connection methods: through Ethernet cable or through the external wireless adaptor included with the player. For the fastest and most stable network connection, we

Setting Up the Player - Easy Setup Wizard
Access the Easy Setup Wizard
When the player is turned on for the first time, an Easy Setup Wizard screen will appear. It is a series of guided instructions designed to configure the basic settings for the player.
To start the Easy Setup Wizard, please follow these steps: 1) Turn on the TV.
2) Turn on the player.
3) Switch the input selection on your TV so that the TV displays the signal from the player. You should see the first step of the Easy Setup Wizard.
If the Easy Setup Wizard has previously been completed or canceled, it will no longer initiate when you turn on the player. Instead, you will see the background screen with the OPPO and Blu-Ray Disc logos. To access Easy Setup Wizard, please press the SETUP button on the remote control, select Device Setup, then Reset
Factory Default. Select “OK” to confirm loading
the factory default settings. Once the factory default settings are loaded the Easy Setup Wizard will appear.
The first step of the Easy Setup Wizard allows you to skip the entire wizard. If you are familiar with setting up audio/video equipment and would like to customize the player settings using its Setup Menu, you may use the LEFT/RIGHT ARROW
buttons to select the “Cancel” option, then press the ENTER key to exit the Easy Setup Wizard.
Otherwise, to continue with the Easy Setup Wizard, select the “OK” option and press the ENTER key.
Choose the Primary Video Output
The player can output video through its HDMI and component output terminals. (Composite video output is also available but not recommended.) By setting the “Primary Video Output” option, the
player can optimize video output of the selected terminal. The choices are “HDMI 1”, “HDMI 2” and
“Analog”. If you connect the player to the TV using an HDMI cable (see Method 1 on page 10, Method 2 on page 11, Method 5 on page 14, or Method 9 on page 18), please select “HDMI 1” or “HDMI 2”
correspondingly. If you connect the player to the TV using component video cables (see Method 4 on page 13), please select “Analog”.
Please note: The best performance will be provided over the HDMI connection. Between the two HDMI

Select the Best Output Resolution
One of the major advantages of the OPPO Blu-Ray Disc Player is its ability to play high-definition Blu-Ray video and also up-convert standard definition video stored on DVD discs to high definition. The sophisticated video processor inside the player ensures that the video will have the best possible color, detail and motion. The player offers several standard and high definition video output resolutions. To get the best visual result, it is important to select an output resolution that best matches your TV or display device.
The rule of thumb when selecting an output resolution is to match the “native resolution” of your TV or display device as closely as possible. The “native resolution” is the resolution of the actual display component in the TV, such as the Plasma panel, LCD panel, or DLP™ chip. The TV may accept input signals with lower or higher resolutions than its native resolution. In such cases the electronics in the TV will up-scale or down-scale the video to fit its display component. Unfortunately many TVs on the market only do an average job scaling the video. On the other hand, if you set the OPPO Blu-ray Disc Player to output a resolution that matches or is very close to the native resolution of the TV, you are more likely to get a great picture.
For the latest generation of 1080p, “Full HD” or “True HD” displays, the best output resolution will naturally be 1080p. (A few early model 1080p displays do not accept 1080p signal. For these displays the best output resolution to use is 1080i.) For all other digital televisions this will likely be 720p. For CRT tube or rear projection televisions this will likely be 1080i. For EDTV displays (very rare if they have HDMI or DVI) this will be 480p/576p. These are general recommendations that work for most users, but there can be exceptions. Advanced users may want to try all supported resolutions and choose the one that provides the best visual result.
The OPPO Blu-ray Disc Player supports a special “Source Direct” output resolution on its HDMI output. This
resolution is recommended for use with external video processors or high-end TVs. In “Source Direct” mode, the player works as a “transport”. It decodes video from the discs and then sends the raw video signal in its native resolution and format, without extra processing, to the external video processor or TV. The actual output resolution varies by content:
Content Source Direct Output Resolution
PAL DVD 576i
NTSC DVD 480i
Most Blu-ray Movies (film-source) 1080p 23.976Hz or 1080p 24Hz Most Blu-ray TV shows or Concerts
(video-source)
1080i
SACD and DVD-Audio 1080i
Depending on your selection of “Primary Video Output”, the available output resolution selections
will differ. For the HDMI 1 and HDMI 2 output, the
following output resolutions are available: Auto,
1080p, 1080i, 720p, 480p/576p, 480i/576i, and Source Direct. If “Auto” is selected, the player will
determine its output resolution based on the best signal resolution that the TV can display. For the Analog (component) output, the following
output resolutions are available: 1080p, 1080i, 720p, 480p/576p and 480i/576i. Please note 1080p only applies to HDMIoutput, if it is selected for component video outputs, it will automatically be down-scaled to 1080i. Please refer to the specifications of your TV to find the best resolution to use.
Easy Setup t x e N s u o i v e r P Step: 3/6
Choose the output resolution which best matches your TV.
Change will be applied immediately. You will have 15 seconds to either save the new setting or rollback to the previous output resolution.
720p Auto 480p/576p 480i/576i Source Direct 1080i 1080p Enter
Press the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons to select the desired output resolution, then press the ENTER
button. The player will apply the selected output resolution and ask you to confirm the selection. If your TV supports the selected resolution, you will see a dialog box with a count-down clock. Use the
LEFT ARROW button to highlight the “OK” option
and press the ENTER button to save the resolution
setting. If your TV does not support the selected resolution, you may see a black screen or an error message. In this case please wait for 15 seconds and the Easy Setup screen will reappear. Select a different resolution that your TV can support.
NOTE
• If you cannot get a picture using the HDMI or Analog (component) output. please connect the player to the TV using the composite video output, and then use the Setup Menu to adjust the player settings.
• Video up-conversion over the Analog (component) output is only available for unencrypted discs such as home video and consumer-created contents. Most commercially pressed DVD discs are CSS-encrypted and will be limited to 576i/576p resolution. This restriction applies to the component output only. The HDMI output is protected with HDCP and has no such restriction.
Determine the Display Aspect Ratio
Standard Definition, or 4:3 TV Wide screen, or 16:9 TV
The aspect ratio is the proportional ratio of a TV screen’s width and height. Older television sets generally have a 4:3 aspect ratio – the width is 4/3 (or 1.33) times the height. Newer wide screen television sets have a 16:9 aspect ratio – the width is 16/9 (or 1.78) times the height. For best performance, the video output of your player needs to match the screen aspect ratio of your TV. Since almost all Blu-ray Discs and many DVD discs are released in the wide screen format, it is highly recommended that you use a wide screen TV with the player.
The Aspect Ratio selections are 4:3 Letterbox, 4:3 Pan & Scan, 16:9 Wide, and 16:9 Wide/Auto.
Depending on your selection and the video format recorded on the discs, image appearance on the TV screen can be one of the following:

Select the Audio Setting
The Blu-ray Disc format brings not only high resolution video, but also high bit rate audio such as Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD High Resolution and DTS-HD Master Audio. Blu-ray Discs may also include additional audio features such as menu click sound and Secondary Audio Program (SAP – audio associated with the secondary video in Picture-in-Picture mode). Depending on the user preferences and other
audio/video equipment connected to the player, the audio settings need to be adjusted to achieve the best result. The Easy Setup Wizard offers two basic selections to get you started.
The “Compatible” setting configures audio output
in a way that is generally compatible with all types of equipment and content. If you connect the player to a television directly, or to a receiver with an HDMI 1.1/1.2 or optical/coaxial input, selecting the “Compatible” setting is recommended. When
menu click sound and Secondary Audio Program are presented in the content, those will be mixed into the audio output.
The “Advanced” setting configures audio output
to send the original main audio content to a connected receiver for decoding and reproducing. It requires a receiver capable of decoding all high bit rate audio formats. If you connect the player to a receiver supporting HDMI 1.3 or higher version and high bit rate audio formats, selecting the “Advanced” setting is recommended. Menu click sound and Secondary
Audio Program are turned off by default.
Press the UP/DOWN ARROW buttons to select one of the audio setting choices, and then press the ENTER
button. The two basic audio setting choices may not cover all situations. You can further customize the audio settings using the player’s Setup Menu.
